Isamu Noguchi’s father was a Japanese poet and his mother was an American writer. Although he was born in California and lived much of his life in the U.S., Noguchi’s travels reflected his own East-West duality. The artist spent his childhood traveling throughout Japan with his mother. As a young man he went to Paris to study with the abstract sculptor Constantin Brancusi. In China, he studied the ancient art of calligraphy.
In the sleek, mid-century forms of Calligraphics, Noguchi combined his love of modern sculpture and calligraphy. The two shapes suggest abstract versions of Japanese characters: ni meaning “the sun” (like the red sun on the flag of Japan) and hon meaning “the origin” (perhaps his own).

A royal wife stands with her hands resting on the heads of her twin daughters who hold their breasts in a Yoruba gesture of greeting, devotion and humility. This post was carved to decorate a courtyard veranda in the palace of the Ogoga of Ikere, one of the kings of Yorubaland. The courtyard served as an official area where the king received important visitors and conducted affairs of state. It was important that he show off his wealth, power and sophistication in this space.
This veranda post was carved by one of the most renowned sculptors in Africa, Olowe of Ise. His sculptures were so beautiful that some people believed Olowe harnessed the power of spirits who carved for him. Elaborate hairstyles and scarification patterns (look at the royal wife’s back) demonstrate Olowe’s technical mastery and reflect Yoruba standards of beauty. Traces of layered pigments indicate that these were once brightly painted and regularly refurbished.

"Standing Woman" was commissioned for the New York City apartment of Mr. and Mrs. O'Donnell Iselin, cousins of James Sibley Watson, Jr., one of Lachaise's most important patrons. Lachaise designed the sculpture knowing that the work was to be the centerpiece of a formal library, and would be placed on the mantel above the fireplace. He wrote that he "composed the figure in a spirit of tranquil elevation, harmonious to the purpose of the room."
Lachaise's most distinguished subjects are life sized draped female figures. The Memorial Art Gallery is fortunate to own two examples, the bronze Standing Woman and the stone Fountain Figure.

Dr. Caligari is among a series of thirteen clocks that Wendell Castle created in the 1980s. He made them at the suggestion of his dealer, who urged him to create a body of work that would challenge the critics’ association of Castle with functional furniture. Castle was particularly interested in the concept of time, and Dr. Caligari is a fanciful exploration of time travel. Its tall case is rich with connections to traditional grandfather clocks. It suggests either a trip to the past in an ancient obelisk, or to the future, in a rocket ship.
The title of the work was inspired by the angular set design of the 1920 German Expressionist film, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. The clock’s painted interior was intended to suggest the silent horror film’s unsettling mood. Castle and his longtime associate Don Sottile developed a smearing technique using India ink over gesso that gave the painted finish its distinctive feathered edges.

Romantic and enigmatic, Joseph Cornell’s boxes are filled with fragments of found materials. In The Admiral’s Game, the parallel rods that hold a pair of white balls might suggest a playful arcade game or the timeless and profound idea of an all-powerful creator setting the planets in motion.
Cornell made his highly symbolic and mysterious creations at the home that he shared with his mother and brother in Queens, New York. While Cornell was reclusive and essentially an outsider in the art world, his work influenced many important American artists, including Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, and Marcel Duchamp.
